Get out your hiking shoes and water bottles - Professor Ralkowski and GW TRAiLS will be leading a Spring Hike! Join us on Saturday, April 25th to the Great Falls trail in Maryland.
For this trip, we will begin on a gravel path known as the Towpath. Then we will proceed to Billy Goat Section A, which is 1.75 miles. This section is the most technical and challenging on the trail, with scrambling over angled rocks and some climbing. Then we will rejoin the Towpath for the last 1.5 miles to complete the loop. We will then end by going to Great Falls Overlook, which we will travel on a series of easy boardwalks and bridges to reach.
Lunch and snacks will be provided, but please bring your own water! The cost of attendance is $5, payable to the UHP Townhouse, in cash, by Wednesday, April 22nd. You must fill out the waiver and pay your fee to attend. Link to RSVP in story AND newsflash.

The George Washington University’s Division for Student Affairs is excited to welcome the Walk for Peace to our Foggy Bottom campus!

This inspiring movement began on Oct. 26, 2025, when nearly two dozen Buddhist monks (also referred to as Bhantes) and Aloka the Peace Dog, from the Huong Dao Vipassana Bhavana Center in Fort Worth, Texas, embarked on a 2,300-mile walking journey to Washington, D.C., to promote national healing, unity, and compassion.

Be part of this global event while experiencing the powerful message of peace that this movement represents.

Vienna’s history is intertwined with the rise and fall of empires, from its origins as a Roman outpost, through its heyday as capital of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, and its role in the Third Reich. Its location at the crossroads of cultures East and West proved fertile terrain for artists, designers, architects, musicians, writers, and so on. The legacies of the past continue to inform present-day artistic production in the city and environs.



This course will offer a history of art and empire across time, taking Vienna as its case study. Through readings, discussions, site visits, and opportunities to make art themselves, students will learn about history as accretion and art’s role as a force that can support or subvert empires. While the scope of this history is broad, and the range of arts wide, students will channel this background into focused research projects on topics of their own choosing.

Info Sessions
Fri. Feb. 20, 5-6:30 pm, Flagg B-162/163 + SCREENPRINTING!
Tues. March 17, 10-11 am, Smith Hall of Art 10
